• I can't find my outlook express address book after you migrate successfully from the old computer. The "Address book" tab shows that local address book empty.

  I move from a Windows XP computer to a Windows 7 computer. My old computer has Outlook Express. I've migrated successfully my emails and messages archived in Thunderbird on the new computer. I also migrated the Outlook Express address book using an external hard drive, but I was not able to understand how to find the Outlook Express address book in Thunderbird. The only way that I could find the Outlook Express address book, is to go to 'tools' and 'import' and then import the Outlook Express address book. When I do this, the Outlook Express address book features, duplicate entries (because I imported twice now). When the Outlook Express address book shows, it works without problems and I can use it to send emails. But once I close the Outlook Express address book, I can't find him. Other messages, I see that the "Address book" tab in Thunderbird should open a window containing a list of available on the left side address books. But this window in my computer does not display a list of address books. There is just a blank window for the address book personal (it has no contacts inside) and there is nothing on the left side.

• Problems with Outlook Express (address book, mail open, etc.)

  Hi, I have a strange problem with my outlook express. The program opens ok, it synchronize the e-mail with the servers and so on. If you click on an email in the upper part of the window you can see the content below.
  Now, this is my problem, I can not doubleclick on an email to open it, I can't send an email or forward it. I can't open the address book.
  I get different messages, "it was not possible to open the address book, it cannot be installed correctly", "the message could not be opened, an error has occurred", "it was not possible to load the due address book that Outlook Express is not properly configured. Reinstall Outlook Express"and so on.
  I used this software for many years and the problem came from one day to the other. I tried to uninstall/reinstall the program from the Control Panel, I did a repair on XP installation, but it is always the same, is there anyone who has an idea (I know that Outlook Express is and old program, but it works very well for my needs).

  What about Nils

  First, try a new identity and see if that helps.

  You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identity | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.

  Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

• BlackBerry Smartphones bb do not sync with outlook express address book

• Failure of Outlook Express to download and email: error code0x800CCCOF

  Here is the error message displayed when I try to use Outlook Express:

  (I can, perversely, send messages in the normal way, but it won't download the multiplication of incoming messages).

  "Your server has terminated suddenly the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. "Account: 'mail.btinternet.com', server: 'mail.btinternet.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800CCC0F.

  I checked all the settings and they seem to be set correctly, as suggested by my ISP. I also increased the length of the "Time out" maximum available, as suggested in a Microsoft article, nothing helps.

  Can anyone suggest how to deal with this problem?

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 
   
  Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email
  http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm
   
  The way most effective to do this is to completely remove the program anti-virus and then perform a custom installation. When the possibility of withdrawing the e-mail analysis arises, remove.
  
   
  If that doesn't resolve the issue, after return.

• How to move the old address book (XP) in the new computer (8.1) as the existing default address book.

  I have exported the address book in LDIF format and also found the abook.mab file in my old XP computer. My new address book W8.1 is totally empty. I don't know where to find the profile folder on W8.1 and when I import the LDIF creates a new address book folder that I don't want. I just want that everything in the default address book.

  Open the newly created address book. Click a contact to select it. Press command + a to select all. Just drag and drop them on the personal address book to settle there.

• loss of address book and records custom in Outlook Express when merged Windows Live ID with Outlook

  Hello, I am new to Forum.  I got a Smartphone, a Windows phone, hooked through AT & T Uverse.  I merged ID them Windows Live ID with Outlook and then Outlook Express to check my email from other accounts that were active, and they were all gone, as well as my custom with saved email folders are all gone and my address book is empty - everyone passed.  Can someone help me find what I mentioned, it's gone?  Thank you.  Waiting...  Oh my desktop has Windows XP and my Smartphone is Windows 7.5.  Just thought this might be useful.

  Jessie.

  All Outlook contacts are stored in a file with a .wab extension and mails are stored with the extension .pst.

  Filenames usually have your login window. Do a search and find where are the .wab and .pst files, and then you use these files to rstore on your Outlook Express.

• My outlook express won't let emails through. I am getting an authorization and then an error will appear.

  Outlook express won't come through

  My outlook express won't let emails through. I am getting an authorization and then an error will appear. Sometimes it will say: reception of messages, but none will come by.  A box appears and says that he put an end to the connection, maybe because of the connection to the server, the long period of inactivity or network connection. Also, I get a message on and which was completely removed several times on the file inbox and delete. I have no idea how to solve this problem or what I did to make it. I've never experienced this before.

  You probably have the widespread corruption of dbx files. Try in a new identity.

  File | Identities | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.

  Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

  In addition, follow these guidelines to help avoid this in the future.

  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

  Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

  Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

• Outlook Express main identity and Comcast email server

  I use Outlook Express (Internet Explorer 8) in Windows XP Pro.  A year and half ago my main identity ceased to be able to access the new emails through my Comcast email server account, but my other two (not main) identities Comcast can download all of their new emails.  I just get a message "unknown error", said that the main identity account cannot access the server.  PS. I can send emails, but I can't receive them.  I tried to look at all the POP and SMTP elements and they do not seem to be wrong Comcast took me through several steps but said the probel in my OExpress program and they were no help at all after that.  Any ideas?  Thank you.

  Tip: Create an identity third to replace the main identity. Import messages and address book and if it works well, remove the main identity.

  Make sure that the SMTP port is set to 587 and my server requires authentication is enabled. (Many Comcast Tech don't even know it).

  How can I set up/configure Outlook Express, Windows Mail & Windows Live Mail to E-mail from Comcast?
